Facilities
The Department of Art and Art History is located in two building, Lebus Court and Rembrandt Hall. Lebus Court includes the department office and visual resource center, classrooms, and faculty offices. Rembrandt Hall includes studio classrooms and faculty offices. All of the art history classrooms are outfitted with the latest in digital technology. Studio facilities also have such technology available where appropriate.
Rembrandt Hall is one of the oldest buildings on campus. It was designed by Myron Hunt and built in 1914 (it was enlarged in 1936-37) as the first building not only on campus, but in the whole of the Pomona Valley, to be devoted to art. It contained both studio and gallery space.
Lebus Court was also designed by Myron Hunt as part of the Mabel Shaw Bridges Hall of Music, built in 1915. It is a U-shaped courtyard located behind, or at the south end of, the main hall. In the mid-1990s Lebus Court was renovated to provide additional classrooms and a more spacious department office and Visual Resources Center.
